My main reason for doing this website (if you don't already know it) is to provide the general public reasonable access to the academic literature.

Over the years I've played with ideas on how best to make the ideas I read in scientific articles available to the public; not everything I tried worked really well.

Here's a photo essay I did for a 2005 article by archaeologist Sarah Tarlow in the journal called Industrial Archaeology Review called "Death and Commemoration". You tell me whether it works or not.
